Collection consists of digitized copies of books from the Sheldon and Judy Godfrey Collection of historical manuscripts and publications, most related to the history of Jewish people in the Atlantic World in the sixteenth through the mid-nineteenth century. Digitization made possible through patron request and through a joint partnership with the Internet Archive. Digitized material consists of historical publications that fit the format and physical condition requirements of the Internet Archive, were in the public domain and/or at a low risk of copyright infringement, and had not been digitized by the Internet Archive, Canadiana.org, Europeana or The Hathi Trust at the time of selection. Digitized material represents approximately 1% of the total collection.
